Series 7: 8.2.7.1 Accumulation Phase For A Non-Qualified Annuity

Taken from our Series 7 Top-off Online Guide

8.2.7.1 Accumulation Phase for a Non-Qualified Annuity

The IRS designates annuities as either qualified or non-qualified. Most annuities are non-qualified, and for the exam, you should assume the annuity is non-qualified unless otherwise specified.

Contributions into a non-qualified annuity are made with after-tax dollars. So any contributions are not taxed at withdrawal. Any income earned in the annuity is put back into the subaccount and is not taxed until it is withdrawn. This allows earnings to grow tax-deferred.

When an investor makes a random withdrawal during the accumulation or the annuitization period, the withdrawal is taxed using the last in, first out (LIFO) method. With this method, earnings in the account will be assumed to be withdrawn first and are taxable at the annuitant’s ordinary rate. When all earnings have been withdrawn, the remainder, the contribution, can be withdrawn tax-free.

TESTIMONIALS

What are people saying?

In preparation for the Series 7, I began with Kaplan. I tested and did not pass. I then switched to STC materials. I tested and did not pass. I then switched to Solomon and passed! I also used Solomon for the 63 and passed the first time. I highly recommend Solomon's test preparation materials. The question bank was far more extensive than the others and I definitely felt better prepared using Solomon.

A more recent update after taking my Series 7 exam: Within one year of joining the financial industry, Solomon materials have gotten me a 100%, 4 for 4 pass rate with the SIE, S6, 63 and S7 all completed within 10 months. Once again, the materials and practice tests prepared me for the S7 exam better than I could've imagined. I will continue to refer people to Solomon, as the material, customer service, and whole experience has been unmatched.

Used Solomon for my second & third time. First time I used a different company & day of test, I had no idea what I was reading. Second time, I bought Solomon a little too close to my test date, failed but had a higher score. Third Time, used strictly Solomon & passed! Cant thank Solomon enough, will recommend to everyone!

I found Solomon Exam Prep from a general comment that probably came from someone who works for the company. It went along the lines, "Solomon Exam Prep also has study materials for the 7" (goes to show you that inbound marketing works) I tried the STC program that most firms provide, mine included. Didn't like it, and many people on the forum that went that route mentioned they didn't feel adequately prepared for the real exam. In the STC program you can only take each quiz and practice exam 1 time. Also tried Kaplan's cheap 2 test simulation package but despised the components of the simulation, the mark for review button didn't let me go back to review the test before submitting it, and it took forever to "save" my answers before moving on to the next question. It was just a badly developed program. It wasn't improving my scores nor did it help me to better understand the material. I tried Solomon's out because it was comparable in price to Kaplan's exam simulation program but I hate Kaplan's simulator. solomon's had a larger question bank, and both provided unlimited tests which was my real requirement. Loved Solomon's exam simulator program from the start, and the Finra Concept tests combined with the simulation exams is what really improved my score. Solomon will be the only company I use to prepare for all exams I may have in the future and I highly recommend it. Solomon got a life-long repeat customer all because of a generic comment from a random forum.

Thanks to Solomon I was able to pass the SIE, Series 7, and Series 63, great study material if you put the hours in!

Feels so good to have passed! (Series 7) It was about as challenging as I thought it would be and I'm glad the study material prepared me for understanding the concepts, and not just memorizing terms and formulas. Only changed two of the 15 answers for questions I flagged for review and finished it with more than 90 minutes to spare. The relief I felt upon seeing "Pass" was awesome!
Used Solomon materials for both the SIE and S7. So grateful to these materials for helping me achieve a passing score on my first attempts of both exams. The study guide and videos were thorough, comprehensive and easy to follow. I found the pie charts extremely useful in helping me identify areas where I needed more study, and was grateful for the Pass Probability feature in giving me a bit of extra confidence before sitting for the exam. I would absolutely recommend all of their materials to anyone taking this journey.
